I think the nub of your response is that people
"believe" things sound different. It's the same mental

Fairy and Santa Claus. They don't have a shred of
objective evidence that things sound different, just
their faith. I'll accept that pots, capacitors, resistors etc. sound
different when I see objective measurements that
indicate that there should be a difference and the
results of properly conducted double-blind tests that
show that there was a difference. S.

Interesting. I'll study it in the next day or two.


It's not what it seems. The testing procedures ignored the nonlinearity of
an audio transformer, and did not use the caps as they are typically used in
audio gear.
